was researching lowering, and most sites say blocks can be used if the axel is above the leaf springs. the rangers is below the springs. so how do the blocks work? the rear is currently 3 inches higher than the front, so a 3 inch drop will be good, but will this affect ride comfort if the stock leaf springs are used?
